We only have a recipe where we assume INHERITS is used like the PG docs say in 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/ddl-partitioning.html#DDL-PARTITIONING-IMPLEMENTATION
 .  That is, child tables don't have any extra columns.

In this scenario, SQLAlchemy doesn't need to know about the child tables at 
all, pretty much.

Here's the recipe:

SQLA has no facilities to reflect the INHERITS clause itself.
